Soon all the people who still remember the horror of life for working class people before the creation of the NHS will be dead... and their testimony will become hearsay to those who would strive to capitalise on ill health. Harry Leslie Smith reminds us:

In years past, this sort of behavior would have been unimaginable from a president of the United States. Unimaginable. There are other words to describe this, but you can simply watch it and feel it yourself. This is being done in public.The press is being attacked in public and private. Having a free press is critical to our democracy. Having a president that knows how to answer questions with class, professionalism, and intelligence is critical to our culture and society.

You'll want to be sitting down for this bit. Water companies are currently £82.7 billion in debt, have paid themselves £85 billion in dividends, leak over a trillion of litres of water per year, dump sewage for almost 4 million hours per year, have been convicted of over 1,200 criminal acts since 1989 and an average of 35% of your bill goes on nothing but paying more interest and yet more dividends. And not a single company has ever lost their operating licence. 👇

Yorkshire Water and Northumbrian Water have nearly 200 criminal convictions between them. On 6 August 2024, Ofwat fined them £47m and £17m for sewage dumping. Fines not paid, will not be paid. Firms claim to have invested. No penalty for abusing laws leftfootforward.org/2026/01/public…

Great Yarmouth MP Rupert Lowe has declared that British people owe a "great vote of thanks and gratitude to Elon Musk." The register of MPs' interests reveal Lowe has been paid tens of thousands of dollars by Musk for posting on this site.

FLASHBACK: Kamala Harris warned Americans that Trump would send the military after them. She was mocked at the time by right-wing media and pundits. She was right. They owe her an apology.

When I remembered that Robert Jenrick ordered cartoon murals to be painted over in case they made migrant children feel welcome, I knew he was definitely a big enough twat to join Reform.

67% of Reform MPs have previously been elected as representatives of the Conservative Party. They broke the country last time; do you trust them to fix it?

Tories are currently talking up 'Labour UTurns'. (Apparently 17 since coming to power, it's actually 11) Here's a useful summary for you to use, of the Tory UTurns: 366 in total. (Context : I ran a Thread for the entire period of the last Tory Parliament. With sources.)

What kind of person endures 14 yrs of Tory incompetence & corruption, votes to oust them, & is then hoodwinked by a master grifter to vote the very worst of them back in again for more of the same. It’d be lunacy on a grand scale. Turquoise Tories. Careful what you wish for.

Another sensitive topic for Farage would be whether Jenrick should hold a by-election. His test (pre-Kruger) was a moral one: that it's "dishonourable" to switch allegiance without seeking a fresh mandate from voters.

Strange business politics. Farage calls press conference to complain about cancelled council elections, then announces a star defector who says that, er, he won't be holding a by-election.

Robert Jenrick on Farage: "I don't think Nigel is the bloke you want to have running your kids' schools or running your local hospital or... trust your savings, your pension, your small business to." (September 2025) "I don't think he's a serious politician." (Oct 2024)

Jenrick is a fraud. I’ve alway thought so, this quote proves it.
